You should add a smoke or edibles category for Benny.


Here's my vote for the appropriate category.

I’ll take:

Conditions over terrain (Not always. In the height of winter, I'd rather ski Gore with 2 inches over Maple Ski Ridge with 2 feet)
Fatter skis over thinner (Generally, yes, but only up to a limit of 110 or so in the east)
Chair lift over gondi (Agree)
Skiing with others over by myself (Agree)
USA West over Europe (Never skied in Europe, so I don't know)
Snowy over Sunny (Only because we're powder starved this year)
Trees over bumps (trees usually have bumps here in the east, which is fine by me)
Skiers that show you they can over skiers who tell you they can (nobody really acts like that on the hill, do they? I think that's an Internet thing)
Cloudspin over Upper Skyward (yeah, but Cloudspin needs good coverage. There are some sharks down there)
Nice butt over nice cleavage (Agree. But nice cleavage is a good bonus)
At the bar over at a table (Agree)

HPD posts are always so much fun!

For me:

Conditions over terrain                                     For sure conditions and I prefer vertical over variety
Fatter skis over thinner                                    Im def a no less than 80s guy these days
Chair lift over gondi                                         Chair
Skiing with others over by myself                      AM Alone or with very like minded friends. Discussions  
USA West over Europe                                                                 BC?  West over Europe, I think...    
Snowy over Sunny                                                                        Snowy!

Quantity because I like skiing as much as possible and I'll hit the quality days anywho.

I was hoping this thread would go better. Maybe these choices will get some discussion going. Like Riv add your own.

Metal over carbon
Some camber over full rocker
Rebound over damp
Longer over shorter (TWSS)
Flat over system binding
Less ramp angle over more
Corporate over Indie
2 degree side bevel over 3 degree
Roto brush over hand brush
Course stone over file (unless really necessary)

Conditions

For sure phat cause that means the conditions are good

Chair

It's always been about the who for me

USA West or Europe?? Never skied either place so don't care

I'll take sunny after a snowy night. Flat light blows

Trees

lets just go skiing and leave the talking up to the talkers

Cloudspin or Upper Skyward --- if they're both open when I'm there it's a good problem to have

Def butt fan. I've never seen a bad pair of boobs tho. I like them all.

Bar --- save the table for the lunch packers

Quality

If the skiing sucks I won't go. There's other shit to get done when the skiing is bad.

TUNES!!! I love skiing with tunes

Lift lines are one of my top priorities. I would take no lift lines and a smaller ski area versus longer lift lines and a much larger ski area. I would definitely take the west over the east, and I prefer North America to Europe.

Buds over Beers
Rocker over Camber
Air over Ground
Trees over Groomers
Boards over Skis
Goofy over Regular
California Uber Alles
Music over Silence
AWD over 2WD
Chaos over Order
Anyone over Trump !

Magic over everything in Southern VT

In the real world, yes.  Plus the butts and boobs wear out long before the brain does (usually).

This is why I love the brains:

I'll give it a shot

sunny over snowy (preferably with fresh snow overnight)
BC over resort
